Did I Miss Anything?
Lynch, Rose Marie
English Journal, v80 n4 p75-76 Apr 1991
Discusses a role-playing scenario designed to introduce the concepts of audience and purpose to business and technical communication students. Notes that, although the scenario has reduced the frequency of the question "Did I miss anything important?" from absentee students, the scenario has not helped the instructor to understand why the students ask such a question.
